  3. Cut in ½ cup (1 stick) cold unsalted butter using a pastry blender or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  4. **Make the filling:** In a large bowl, combine 6 cups peeled and sliced apples (about 6 medium), 1 cup fresh or frozen cranberries (add 2 teaspoons extra flour if using frozen), ½ cup maple syrup, ¼ cup packed light brown sugar, and 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour.
  5. Pour the apple cranberry mixture into the prepared baking dish.
  6. Sprinkle the oat topping evenly over the apple mixture.
  7. Bake for 20 minutes.
  8. Reduce oven temperature to 350°F (175°C).
  9. Continue baking for another 30-35 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the filling is bubbly and slightly thickened.
